The Radiators from space

[Gnottason]

Actually, this reminds me of when I was stuck in Meathe (the Dublin motorway was one of the few glamourous local 'attractions', a pub full of inbreeds being the other) in a damp old smelly house, bored one day I dusted off & fired up the old valve radio and the first music that spluttered out of it was this single. I can still smell the damp when I hear this now, a good memory from a dull time.

@Gnottason Make that a 'pub full of prodigiously farting inbreeds'. 

[Gnottason]

Another band overlooke/ignored by the mainstream. If we'd of had more of this then maybe we'd have had a bit less of Geldorfs bloody ego!!

too old to rock n roll

[theradiatorsfromspac]

One is never too old to do anything!



[Tralfaz666]

great lyrics but too slow...

[theradiatorsfromspac]

This is the first time we have been accused of ripping off another artist.

It's a shame it's not someone we have actually heard of!

classic song from a great punk band..sad they didnt reach a bigger audience,that album is just the biz

[treadhead1945]

Great sound (for a TV performance), great band, great song. What kind of guitar is Phillip playing? It looks like a Gretch to me, but I have never been able to tell them apart from Epiphones.

[theradiatorsfromspac]

It's a Gretsch Country Gentleman Chet Atkins Model (65 i think)

[treadhead1945]

Beautiful sound, man. How are you feeling?

[treadhead1945]

Great sound for a TV performance. Great sound period. Great stuff overall. Guick question tho... What kind of guitar is Phillip playing? Kind of looks like a Gretch to me, but I am not going to bet on it.

[Raggapants]

i kinda remember there being two versions of this song... one was slower... but maybe not this slow... i'll have to dig up that record...

[theradiatorsfromspac]

Two recorded versions 100mph original single and the 75mph TV Tube Heart album version

This version has a new set of lyrics

[rigo63]

Are we all not a bit slower,but WTF,this song still rocks!

[theradiatorsfromspac]

Nice one rigo63 At least someone out there thinks we can still do it :)

[spuuuuuz]

trust me,for those of us who still dust off those classic albums,we never doubted you lads could still do it!!

[rigo63]

WoW,that brings me right back to a mono record player,in a friends bedroom.
